Anyone else thinking that might be a good weekend at Gilboa for a DIR gathering??? I'll post something on MidwestDIR list as well.

Glad to see these guys are off and running with their DIRF classes.
 
Becki,

We will be at Gilboa this weekend just to get some dive in.

Can you make it?
 
are great. You will not find a nicer couple of guys. I am sure the class will be great.

There are nicer guys....their names are jbd & Big-T...:wink:


o.k. but seriously folks...Brando and Scot are a wonderful team (I think they're actually joined at the hip). I am really glad that they are running classes in the midwest.....it will bring diving here to a new level for those interested in going there

I am going to have to go find the midwest DIR list and sign up....I need some more virtual diving classes....

Sadly (NOT!) we are getting ready for a trip to Grand Cayman to dive with Ocean Frontiers in a few days :D

In the meantime we have LOTS of stuff to get accomplished at our places of residence now that it's finally nice enough to work outside!:wink:

When will you be in Cayman?? I'll be diving with Frasier from 6/26 - 7/6, will you still be there???

BTW, everyone needs to avoid this class like the plague, the Scubaguys are the biggest strokes in town!!!!!!


Seriously, if you are in the area they are excellent instructors, and they are great guys to be around so if you are in the area and want to take the class I would highly recommend the ScubaGuys...

You have really got a lot of work to do with this "kinder gentler" GUE thing MHK....I thought the word strokes was outlawed in the new GUE.

I have an idea....you be the video guy for this class....sort of like a role reversal....I like it.

They need to do alot better with this SPAM thing also. Next thing you know every PADI, NAUI, SSI, TDI, SDI, PDIC, ectera shop will want to advertise there O/W classes in here. Or is it GUE is special.
 
No....I don't think they're special, I just think they have the desire to do the legwork to get something approved.

you want to post a class or trip....PM King Neptune or LAdy Diver. IT is their board, we live by their rules.
